In Des Moines
Des Moines is a Puget Sound waterfront city with a marina, hillside homes and a mix of mid-century and newer housing.
Mid-century homes around Des Moines often have a mix of original and updated wiring, so we look at what a device is connected to before replacing it.
Des Moines homes on the bluff and near the water can be on slopes with long sewer runs, and salt air is hard on exposed fittings.
